Weekly Insights: Flowing Free As Me...

To be oneself is to let go of what the outer world thinks or expects us to be. That is true freedom. We become prisoners of this reality when we choose to act only upon the approval of others. If we allow it, the people around us will define who we are and what we are on this planet to share. It is up to each of us to pave our own path, our own choices, and the direction we choose to take our lives.


Part of honoring this physical reality, the body we incarnated in, and the opportunity to be on the Earth in this specific time and space, is to fulfill the mission we came here with. Each of us fills a hole in the bigger puzzle of this living creation. By listening to our inner guidance and following our visions and dreams, we are completing the higher destiny we were meant to live. The ability to become who we are is our superpower. It is part of self-Love, self-acceptance, and self-embodiment. We lose our personal power and freedom when we allow someone else to define us and what we choose for our lives. It becomes the catalyst to disempowerment that leads to anger, resentment, and bitterness. When we don't listen to the heart, but instead follow an outside influence, we become dependent on outer approval and then feel crushed when it is absent. We become reliant on others in order to make our choices and to move forward in our lives. Worrying about what others think creates a seed of anger that grows with the emptiness of unfulfilled dreams. It takes more energy to suppress our dreams than it does to move toward them. Most addictions and other forms of escapism are born out of the decisions to walk away from our living dreams. What we need to focus on more than anything is our boundaries by not allowing another being to define who we are.


People give their power away to others that they wish to please. When we seek the approval of another, it can cause us to forget what is important to us in order to make the other person happy. But why? Do we believe that someone else can do things better than we can? Are we searching for validation from someone? Do we spend too much time comparing ourselves to others? We can never grow our own gardens when we spend all of our time watering someone else's. What gifts do we have to share? What are we good at that we Love to do? Focusing on our strengths and passions will help us to grow stronger and more focused. When we start to look outside for what we are doing inside, then it is time to recalibrate. No one ever said that their personal success came by following what everyone else told them to do. Success stories always show us how the hard work toward big dreams paid off, and that no matter what challenges were faced along the way, giving up was never an option. Owning up to our purpose and the goals and dreams we wish to accomplish in our lifetime offers us true fulfillment. When we put ourselves first in our lives, we become a blessing to others and create the success and abundance to be able to serve our communities, and those in need, in a greater capacity. In the end, everyone wins when following the heart path. Every day is a true gift, and the way we offer our gratitude for life is by living our dreams without apologizing, without any need for approval, and without the desire to be validated. There is nothing to lose but ourselves, and that is all we have to live for in this lifetime.
